Dance With Me, Momma

Sometimes one day in our life is just what we need to keep on moving forward. A little inspiration, encouragement and hope entering into our sometimes dismal worlds. Today just happened to be one of those days for me.

My family and I went on a short hike at a new park my husband found. We climbed up steep hills meant for mountain bikes and followed small trails intended for wild animals. We were able to explore the woods and enjoy God's beautiful world and enjoy the peace and serenity only that can bring.

What touched me most deeply was when Benjamin stopped me about 3/4 of the way through our hike. He pulled my face close to his and whispered in his sweet voice, "Dance with me, momma." So right there in the middle of the woods with only Lawrence looking on, I danced with my 4 year old. He hummed a sweet tune and spun me on the forest floor like we were in a ball room and I was a princess and him a prince. Then he grabbed my face and kissed my lips and said, "I wuv you momma."

What a special moment that I will cherish forever. That moment I needed through some of the days where he isn't so sweet and I am not so patient. An uplifting moment that encouraged me, by him letting me know that I am doing it right.

The rest of the hike was like any other. We ventured back down the steep slopes back into the paved trail; the trail most traveled. With blazing our own path, I found that exploration, sunshine and my sweet family is all I needed. Thank you Benjamin, for being the sweet little mister you are. I will always be there to dance with you.

The Etekfit Scale has to be one of the most intricate bathroom scales that I have ever seen. For a scale to weigh you is one thing, but Etekcity took this to a whole new level. Here are the things the Etekfit Scale weighs aside from just body weight: Body Water PercentageBody FatBone MassBMIBMRVisceral Fat

This scale is sturdy and has a capacity of 400 pounds. The bottom has 4 grips to protect your floor and your scale from getting damaged.

The scale is powered by 4 AA batteries that go into the back of the scale. There is also an Auto Power Off after 30 seconds of non-use.

Without an app, this scale just measures body weight. Etekcity created an app for this scale that is free that you connect via Bluetooth to the scale to measure visceral fat, BMI, etc. The app is for iOS devices from the iPhone 4s and higher and for Android devices with the Android 2.3 or higher with at least Bluetooth 2.1.

I have an Android device so will show you how it works with my smartphone.

I am a skeptic when it comes to weight loss supplements and have never gotten into the fads. Lately though, I cannot seem to lose weight very well. I won't take anything that isn't natural and I know it takes work to get into shape and lose weight. As we all know to well, body fat is extremely stubborn! I exercise regularly and eat healthy, so this supplement was just the thing to kick start my fat loss journey.

I started taking this on April 8th of this year. At the same time, I started doing 30 minutes of strength training in the morning BEFORE I ate breakfast. Also, having a glass of something caffeinated like black or green tea or a cup of black coffee FREE of sugar and creamer, can help kick start your body and give you energy. After the half hour of exercise, I wait about 20 minutes and then take 2 Forskolin Coleus pills. Within 20-30 minutes of taking those, I eat a well balanced meal. I never eat unt…

Komax products are wonderful for everyday use. These water pitchers and bottles are no exception to that! Look at how pretty they are too! I just love how they all look. Here is my video review on them all:

Komax One Touch Water Bottle

This water bottle to me is just a beautiful color. The handle flips up to be hidden and the lid locks very well, but it is easy to open. The white part of the lid lock is pushed down, then the blue top part to pop open the lid. To lock, just shut the lid and push the white part back up. I like how the seal keeps it from spilling inside the cover too, making it much easier to keep clean. It is BPA free and easy to clean in hot, soapy water. It is light and easy to carry around while out and about. It is 700ml (23.6 oz), which is a great size; not to big or too small. It is made with a eco-friendly material that can handle heat as well and can be placed in the freezer. It can be ordered here: One Touch Komax AquaGlass Water Pitcher
